The controversy within this amendment lies in the interpretation of the right to bear arms. Some believe it means the right of all to carry arms openly or concealed without restrictions. It is the opinion of the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office, and the courts, that Concealed Carry (CCW) permits authorize persons to bear arms without infringing on those rights. It is our belief that laws are made to govern rights and protect the rights of law-abiding citizens. There are members of our society who, if allowed to bear arms, would pose a danger to the public (violent, dangerous convicted felons, etc.). CCW regulations help ensure only those who meet the standards can lawfully do so. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |
